andrewjs18 Valued Member United States 63 Posts	Posted 06/21/2010 12:15 am this thing is beautiful. I scored it for $300. the ladies Dad needed some cash so I didn't hesitate. I'll get pics up tomorrow some time. am I correct in thinking this has a gold weight of: .24187 ? where's the mint mark located on this coin? I don't see 1 so I'm thinking it was minted in Philadelphia. Report this Post to the Staff

daviscfad Pillar of the Community United States 4541 Posts	Posted 06/21/2010 12:22 am yes that is correct on the weight. the mintmark would be on the reverse on the left hand side down by the bottom of the coin beside the "arrow?" oh yeah Edited by daviscfad 06/21/2010 12:23 am Report this Post to the Staff

andrewjs18 Valued Member United States 63 Posts	Posted 06/21/2010 01:10 am I guess it's a Philly coin then. I don't see any mint mark next to the arrow. looks like it's worth right around $305 at spot. I could probably get $330 or so for it, if not more..it's in real nice shape. pics sometime today since it's 1:10am on the east coast. =P Report this Post to the Staff

johnny54321 Rest in Peace United States 4849 Posts	Posted 06/21/2010 5:51 pm As long as the coin is genuine, you can't go wrong with a buy like that. However, this series is highly counterfeited so it's worthwhile to confirm authenticity. Report this Post to the Staff
